Thank You for All the Hats!!

What an amazing to The Hats for Hope Challenge — nearly 500 hats of all shapes and sizes.

What a challenge to hang them. Many people sent more than one hat, and 200 of them are on display. The Clubs of Marlborough (adjacent to the Convention Centre) Foyer is a riot of colour. A huge thank you to all who took part.

Hats for Hope

These are some of the hats that have arrived so far. How is YOURS progressing?

How good to see a woven hat, and a hat a man could wear. Unfortunately men need chemotherapy too.

Hats for Hope

Cancer patients will really appreciate receiving a ‘funky’ hat to wear, knowing that someone cared enough to create it on their behalf, and positive publicity will be generated for both the Cancer Society and Creative Fibre.

Creators can make as many hats as they wish but only one hat per maker will be displayed unless display space permits otherwise. Hats will be chosen and displayed with the whole display in mind, and will bear the maker’s name and hometown.

We want fun hats, funky hats, traditional hats, futuristic hats, functional hats - hats created with love.

Hats for chemotherapy patients should be designed so they cover back and sides of the head.

Please note: hats will not be returned to their maker, but will be donated to the Cancer Society.

Get your thinking hats on, and create a hat for hope!!

Creative Fibre Members, please send hats labelled with your name and hometown to:
